Hi Damjan, Thank you for all the work on the buildbots!
Looking at the Windows bot now: checking whether to build LDAP configuration backend... checking whether to build the internal NSS module... yes configure: error: Mozilla build tooling incomplete! It seems like MozillaBuild was updated to 4.x, which we do not support yet.
